For anyone who lives in a state that requires a front license plate. Go to Mr.Kustom.com. They have a hidden flip license plate that hides under the car and push a button it flips out. Check it out. I'm very interested.

Looks hot. Do you remember or can tell me who the seller was on ebay ?

[QUOTE=nate;24728924]I contacted Emmanuele Design about the ACC sensor on their grill (RS3 Quattro Mesh Style Grille - Audi A3/S3 8V Fitment ? Emmanuele Design)

I went ahead and purchased the black grill with black optics from Emmanuel designs. Now the question is do I get a tow hook license plate holder which I think looks tacky or do I spend a little more and get the hidden flip plate. I will post before and after pics when it comes in

Do you have front parking sensors? If so, let me know how the grill fits and if it triggers the front parking sensors all the time. I love the mesh grill but don't want to block my parking sensors which I heard was an issue with these grills.

Yes I do have front parking senors. But my friend told me the way around that is too sand the senor hole with dremel or something to make a little bigger if it happens. I know people that it never happened too and some that have. But I'll let you know.

I wish our A3 was that good. The face-lift A3 coming soon looks worse than the current.

They going to be reveal the B9 A5 in June, I think that's the next transition go from A3 -> A5 . Plus I read that Audi will bring the A5 Sportback to the US this time.

My grill just came in today intact. So I'm glad. I just don't have the time to do it myself with work and kids and a dog. Anyone know a place in ny metro or long island that could swap out my grill at a decent price??
